My question is, Is there anything we can do like adding sand etc to the clay
to make it more habitable for plants, even veggies, as at the moment it just

I find that mushroom compost is best. My allotment is sticky in
winter, and bakes hard in summer, but where I've added mushroom
compost it is much nicer to work.
Loads of WRM also helps.
